The BBC Director General has refused to ban the term Islamic State in its reports.
In response to 120 MPs signing a letter asking for it not to be used, Tony Hall has said any alternative name would be "pejorative" and the broadcaster must remain "impartial".
Lord Hall of Birkenhead made the comments in a private reply to MPs.
In the letter, seen by the Times, he wrote: "The BBC takes a common sense view when deciding how to describe organisations, we take our cue from the organisation's description of itself.
"We have recognised that used on its own the name Islamic State could suggest that such a state exists and such an interpretation is misleading. So we have caveated the name "Islamic State" with words which qualify it eg "so called Islamic State"."
